The floor is quite disastrous for a dance venue.

It's the most fun place in this atmosphere, in the city.

The Instagram post from June 5th said: 2-for-1 drinks anytime during the night. It turns out that "anytime" is whenever they announce it over the microphone. In other words, it's not ANYTIME OF THE NIGHT. I was there until 3:30 AM and that NEVER happened. COMPLETELY MISLEADING ADVERTISING
